Ingredients
- 87 grams coconut flour (3/4 cup)
- 93 grams brown or granulated monkfruit sweetener or sweetener of choice (1/2 cup) more or less according to taste
- 13 grams baking powder (1 TBS)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
- 4 grams ground cinnamon (2tsp) more or less accorsing to taste
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg more or less according ot taste
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/4 cup WARM water
- 1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
- 60 grams plain yogurt or sour cream, room temperature (1/4 cup)
- 9 oz pumpkin puree (1 cup)
- 1 TBS maple or vanilla extract, optional more or less according to taste
- 1 1/4 cup keto butterscotch chips more for topping if desired
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or line 15 muffin cups
- In a large mixing bowl sift or whisk together all dry ingredients until no lumps are in the dry ingredients
- Stir in the eggs and warm water until all the dry ingredients are moist
- Stir in the butter and sour cream until fully combined. Stir in the pumpkin puree and extract (if using) until fully combine and smooth
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl and push the dough/batter to the center of the bowl. Allow dough/batter to sit for 3 minutes to absorb moisture
- Push dough/better together and roll around the bowl to make sure of texture. Dough/batter will be VERY moist but should not be sticky
- Gradually fold in the chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough/batter
- Divide the dough/batter evenly between the prepared muffin cups. (about 3 1/2 TBS dough/batter in each cup) Use fingers or a knife and spread the dough/batter evenly throughout the cups keeping the top even and smooth
- If desired top with a few extra chips. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until golden and a tester comes out clean
- Remove from oven. They will be soft but will firm up as they cool. Allow to cool in the pan 20-30 minutes or until firm enough to transfer to a wire rack
- Transfer tot wire rack and allow to cool completely. Store leftovers in an airtight container up to 1 week
I think I should have drained the pumpkin before adding it to the batter.. I baked for the required time & the muffins were wet on the bottom. So I put them back in for 10 minutes. Then my butterscotch chips got hard. They’re still edible after cooling. I also used a metal pan. Im going to use silicone the next time I make these.
